Albert Cuyp Market
Amsterdam's biggest street market. Graze through stroopwafels hot off the press, Dutch herring, Surinamese roti, and fresh flowers. Best visited before 3pm.
Brouwerij Troost De Pijp
5 min walk from the market. Craft brewery in a former monastery with a sunny courtyard. Try a flight of their Amsterdam-brewed beers and share a cheese board.
Sarphatipark
3 min walk. A lovely neighbourhood park for a post-beer stroll. Grab a bench by the fountain and people-watch — pure De Pijp vibes.
Spang Makandra
5 min walk from the park. Legendary Surinamese-Javanese restaurant loved by locals. Roti, nasi goreng, and pom are all incredible — bring your appetite.
Comments
Spang Makandra roti was unreal, we went back the next day honestly.
Try the pom too, it's even better than the roti imo.
Albert Cuyp is closed on Sundays, wish we'd known before showing up to empty stalls 😅
Food-loving couples on a budget who want local flavour
